Bend Police say Robert Joseph Garris, 39, shot Christopher Michael Nolan, 39, “multiple times” outside the Jack in the Box at 805 NE Third St. Nolan had allegedly pulled out a knife at about 9:38 p.m. and approached Garris, who was staying at a nearby motel, police said.

“It’s just one of those things that you hope never happens,” Garris said Wednesday. “But it happened, and now I’ve got to live with it for the rest of my life.” . . .

The robbery suspect was shot twice in the upper torso area according to the Santa Ana Police Department, and the shooting suspect drove off. No description of the shooting suspect was immediately available.

After the chaotic scene, the robber did not get far and collapsed outside the Cozy Corner Drive-In, where the shooting took place. Police took the robbery suspect, who was also a shooting victim, to a nearby hospital, where he remained on Saturday being treated for gunshot wounds. . . .

Police said the shooting took place behind a row of townhomes on Gen. George Patton Road in the River Plantation.

The suspects were driving behind the female victim and bumped her car as she was turning into the alley near her son’s townhome.

According to police, one of the suspects got out of the car and tried to rob the victim at gunpoint. The victim drove into the parking area behind her son’s house and began honking her horn. The son came outside with a gun and one of the suspects allegedly fired first.

“He had an honest and reasonable belief that the use of deadly force was necessary to prevent imminent death and/or great bodily harm to himself or another person. For this reason the warrant has been denied,” officials said.

The incident occurred at 10:20 a.m. near Interstate 75 Service Drive and Riopelle Street, according to prosecutors.

An officer patrolling the area heard a gunshot and when he arrived at the scene, he found Edward J. Ross, 58, of Detroit, lying face down in the street.

The 35-year-old business owner was standing nearby and told the officer that he shot the Ross, who died of a single gunshot wound. . . .

Officers were called to the 4600 block of Shelbourne Street around 2:40 p.m. on Monday. There, they were met by a mother who said the family dog attacked her son, causing injuries to the boy’s face, ear, shoulder area, lower back and abdomen. . . .

The boy was taken to St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children and is reported to be in stable condition. The man who shot the dog was initially taken away in handcuffs, footage from NBC10 shows.

The man has since been released and was not charged with a crime, police said Tuesday. . . .
